Latteily each year has surpassed its predecessors in the 

 amount obtained for current subscriptions ; this was strongly 

 accentuated in 1902. Tlie amount received for subscriptions 

 in arrear much exceeded expectations. To these two facts 

 (in addition to the donations) is mainly due the l)alance in 

 hand just alluded so. No Life Composition has been received 

 in 1902, and the investments remain as before. The item 

 of Expenditure under the heading " Rent and Office Ex- 

 penses," always large, is in 1902 exceedingly so, amounting 

 to nearly £200. It may be well, therefore, to explain that the 

 cost of distributing the Transactions forms part of this item, 

 and accounted for about £55, partly consequent on the 

 increased size of the volume ; lient and Salary absorb £105 ; 

 the comparatively small sum remaining includes the expenses 

 for tea after the meetings. 



In conclusion the Council have to congratulate the Fellows 

 on the increasing prosperity of the Society.
